The Nothingness of Modern Life - Why you should get off the grid

Modern life will not make you happy. The Great Reset or not, what's coming will not be good for our mental health and we will be happier off the grid.

We moved very remote and converted a hunting cabin into a home. We are off grid capable if needed..well, wood cook stove, and the entire cabin can run on my trucks generator for 3 weeks. There hasn’t been much left for me in “society” since the vaccine mandates forced me out of a job. I want my kids to grow up with nature not screens. Modern society has taken its toll on us…It’s time for self reliance.

My father died on Wednesday of last week, with his funeral last Saturday. He died at 81 years of age. He was born at a time where there wasn't much in the way of material comfort. He experienced quite a rich gambit of the various technological changes. One benefit for him was the advances in medical treatment that maintained him as he struggled with his health over the last 12 years of his life. There are a few things about his life that strike me relative to my own experiences. My Dad was able to buy a home in a nice community and had a devoted wife who looked after the jobs at home. Together they had 5 children and could easily afford to sustain that life with an annual summer holiday on his income alone. They only had a mortgage for several years. There was a great sense of community at the funeral. My parents were able to sustain lifelong or other long-term friendships. My Dad was a popular presence in our local pubs and my mother has a strong presence in the local church. The sense of support from these groups has been enormous. I cannot see any of these things being available for me if I reach that age. I'm 39 and don't even own a home. My Dad had 3 children and a fully paid off home at that age. I won't have the ability to plug into a community in the way my parents could. The pub culture is dead, the church is in terminal decline. To top it off we are living in an era without any real sense of group identity or common values. There is no longer a sense of loyalty to each other. I am very fearful for my future and have very little in my life that I enjoy.

[@loganpedroza7493]

I couldn't agree more. There is a certain "nothingness" about modern life which cannot be explained unless you experience it yourself. I, myself, have started to find this truth as I have gravitated away from urbanized areas to more rural areas. The sad truth is we have all been systemically sold a lie regarding what happiness looks like without ever being taught or encouraged to seek out true happiness for ourselves. It isn't until you disconnect yourself from the system that you truly understand.

[@brianmeen2158]

I don’t think “true happiness” exists though. I just try to find Moments of contentment and occasional Endorphin rushes. But yes, the nothingness is what prompted people to create religion and that definitely helps many people fill that void. I’m not religious and even I think the atheist mindset(we are random clumps of cells) is pretty damn depressing . I just feel there has to be More to life but I don’t think there is . I don’t really know why we are here

[@matisyahup613]

I grew up believing in the world as I was taught in school, but by my mid 20s I knew it was all conditioning. I was on a path for a profession that required a doctorate, but withdrew from college after getting my bachelors degree because I just wanted to work and start making money. After a while you realize there is very little difference between a janitor and a doctor. Everyone who works and pays taxes into the system are all slaves. This is the modern world, owners and serfs. Technology, as you put it the matrix, is a hypnotic method to dull our sense of intuition from realizing how trapped we all really are. The problem is the immense power these evil tyrants have, literally everything in the world is controlled by them. Governments, educational systems, pharmaceuticals, etc.... nobody can really escape it. I too have reached a level to say that legitimately I have no place in modern society.

[@Jsteelies]

Wouldn't it be great if we all lived in nature and lived off the land? Then we could share our resources and be much healthier and happy. That is how I perceive the ideal life. Not this modern, technological world. Everything you said was exactly correct. I only got an associate degree. Don't be wrong, this modern life offers a lot of comfort and entertainment but at what cost? We as humans are made for so much more in my opinion. It has to do with nature I believe. We belong in nature not in these concrete jungles.

[@minermike61]

Everything made by human hands, breaks eventually. The people pushing this agenda will have success. I know this for a few reasons but the one which most can agree on is that they will not accept no for an answer. They will murder to make their will happen. Their real problem is that whatever they do might last for a bit, but eventually human nature takes over and there is infighting or some other cause for disruption. The problem they will find is that eventually one of them wants more power and control than they already have and so it begins. For me there is God and I believe it will be dealt with that way. It's either that or form an army to stop this.

[@nomadicbydesign0]

I'm 55 and still see myself as young enough to do anything I dreamed up as a kid. I love to hike because I have a younger sister who can't. The only limits we have are the ones we put on ourselves. I went off grid and lived a very isolated existence, but am back again because we are a community and I need to connect. Also my kids and grandkids are here too. Nature is blissful, but it cannot fulfil our need for human connection. Learning to live in modern life without disconnecting from nature is the next challenge.

[@michellevegangoodlife]

I don't think everyone feels the need for human connection. Glad being back works for you.

[@Crambull]

Some people are truly the lone wolf types and can get by with little human interaction. But as for most people, we need human interaction; some sense of belonging. A tribe of sorts. I believe we need community to really thrive. No matter how small. It can be a small town, but it's the large cities where we get weighed down and feel so alone and disconnected from each other. It's ironic really but that's the truth.

(I posted this as it’s own comment but am copying as a reply to your post as I see it correlates) I believe that older cultures used intuition much more as a tool than the logical brain (edit as a means of survival). Sure they used rudimentary logic, but science and technology did not exist for them. We need to learn how to become more reliant on our intuition if we find ourselves cast out of society and on our own in nature. And just as intellect can be cultivated and grown so can intuition through the agency of trust. And we do this through meditation-stilling the logical mind to hear the inner voice.)

For me the hardest part of this, is to sit back and observe 70 percent of people who glady allowed themselves to be compliant, just so they would be allowed to move about freely or what their perception of freedom is...That to me, is not real freedom. But people who bought into taking endless prescription drugs and not take care of their health are now in big trouble. Sadly, many people make this a political issue and choose one party over the other. They cannot see that both parties have the exact same agenda, but do it with different types of propaganda and manipulation to those who can't think for themselves. What shocked me at my age is that so many people are unaware. As we know, those are the ones that are the most dangerous. Those are the people I am distancing myself from. I enjoy your videos outside in nature, which is our true church of truth. I always pray the best for you and your family. You are the kind of person I feel a kinship to, despite living here in CA. Sending Love and kind thoughts to you and yours.

I realized when everyone was quarantining in their homes and the streets were bare that the noise in my head, the low hum of tension that I feel so regularly - so regularly that it felt like normal - was not me but other people's energy. It was probably the first time I had felt my own energy since I was a kid and it was glorious. Once everyone began coming back out into the public, I didn't go back to my normal activities because I just can't take other people's energies anymore. Then, when I look around and I see that everything is a play and that I am one of the few people around me that recognize that, it makes me feel so very alone. It would help if I had my tribe, but I've never been able to find that. Like you, I don't know where I'm going to end up. Children are grown, parents and husband are gone. I wish us all the very best.

I’ve been fully off-grid in a remote location for 7 years now. I’m still in the workforce system however at age 52 and I’m tired as well because I work a full time job at home and at a paid job. You must realize that most of the money you need is going into the system. If we fully remove ourselves from that madness, we don’t need but a fraction. My plan is to buy up as much things that I need to live out my life. Example is Im a lifelong guitar player and have bought enough sets of strings and spare parts to last last the rest of my life. Im very close to this with tools also. Buy remote cheap property with very low taxes and build without permits and don’t tell anyone what you are doing.

I feel the same way. I'm not sure I can go totally off grid but the last two years have definitely changed me. I have rethought my life and the vaccine mandates in NZ forced that on me by excluding me from much of what I enjoyed doing. I don't have TV or radio so largely immune to the government BS. Always a shock to me when I see people wearing masks and watching them step away from me because I'm not wearing one. I've had to get a 'mask exemption' card to stop being confronted for not complying even though it's not legal to demand that I have one. Jacinda Ardern thought she was being clever trying to force people to have the jab but there's been a push back and it strengthened the resolve of a lot of people. Most are over the covid hype and getting on with life and finally being cynical about the narrative politicians are pushing. I have health problems that I'm having to go outside of main stream medicine to deal with and if I succeed then I will be able to get out of town and hike in the bush. It's amazing and peaceful when there's no human made noise.

Grazing can actually sequester far more carbon than forests at a much, much faster rate. If we grazed animals on a large enough scale, we could actually mitigate all human emissions. Growing plants can not do this. Plant agriculture uses massive amounts of fossil fuels and unlike grazing cattle, it doesn't mitigate its own emissions. The soil microbiome is killed with chemicals and that dead soil is lost rapidly, causing complete land infertility and desertification. Grazing animals is the fastest way to replenish these lands, bring the microbes back, give nutrients back, rehydrate, break up impaction, and build soil faster than any other process. It would take nature decades to build the amount of soil made in a couple of yrs of Grazing.

People who don't adopt the new system will be considered as "those who won't grow and change to move beyond the current systems" Then there is the other meaning, as I _think_ you meant, the "back to the garden" going off-grid, thinking outside the perapgaanda lame stream nneedeeuh. etc... eh?

Our plan is to never go to grocery stores again. Grow all our own food like the Amish to get through each year. We have honeybees (3 hives currently, adding 1 new hive each year), ducks, geese, chickens, meat turkeys. We'll eventually add cows for milk and beef, pigs, goats, and sheep for milk and wool. We want horses too, for transportation. We only have 4.5 acres, but there is a lot of land currently not even being used. We have an orchard with cherry, apple, peach, pear, and plum trees, and blackberries, raspberries, grapes, strawberries, and blue berries growing. Plus an herb garden and a flower garden for the bees. Maple trees to tap for syrup. We're literally livin' the dream and society collapses. I retired from the military at 42 and have never turned back. Spending time with my kids everyday. No more living the rat race or punching a time card. We homeschool since all of the public AND private schools have gone woke and are anti-European ("white"). We have guns and ammo to defend our property, family, animals, food.

Go Into living off grid and in a particular areas looking for people that we can barter wirh. If there are people in the area you want to live in that raise beef or pigs then you know you need ro do something else , something those people would want to trade for . We need to be thinking aboit not just what we need to sur I’ve but what we can grow, do etc that can be used to trade for the things we don’t have. No one family can do it all, raise it all, provide everything they need. Barter will be the key to survival. And finding a community of people…..that’s important…a group,that will be willing to work together , for food, helping each other and for defense . And defense will,be important. As the cities fail, because of lawlessness , lack of the comforts they have become used to and the lack of basic necessities, the strong will,pray on the weak , take from the weak . Those that depend on the goverment to provide everything will,be among the first to know of shortages, and then the nonexistajce of resources. Those that follow appeasement will,have everything taken from them until they have nothing left for themselves………… Those that refuse to believe they need guns to defend themselves will be easy victims for gangs and groups of takers, And when the strong groups, the takers, in cities have exhausted the resources, taken everything that’s of value, those takers will move out to the country…..they will be following the idea that there’s food for the taking by hunting, and there are those that moved off grid to take from, as well as people who have stockpiled necessities, the preppers that they willl be activeky hunting for. A preppers stash would be a desirable prize for those kinds of takers. So understanding defense, that you WILL have defend your property, your people and your goods from someone , or several someone’s, that want to take it from you by force or trickery is critical. You need a group,of people willing to fight to keep,what they have. Because you don’t know where the takers will attack, you don’t know how many they are and you may not be able to food out what kinds of weapons and skills they will bring to their attempt to take what you have. You need to plan for if and how you would take in people. Living off grid and working a homestead takes labor it takes people, so if you are an individual,or a small,family,y our may need more help to make it all woek. Taking in people fleeing at the last Minute from cities, from the lack of resources or from takers could be a way To get that help. Buy how can you trust them? That they will,work in exchange for being part of your group:? How can you know that they aren’t spies sent by someone that has seen what you have and plans to take it? And choosing your property and it’s overall location wirh an eye to defense, a “ how can we defend this if takers come “ kind of mentality. There is so much more to think about than just finding a good location, building a shelter , getting power and water, and developing a garden and other foos sources like meat animals.

I felt this way as a teen in the mid-80's! Today (June 2022) I'm in my mid-50's, and I feel nothing has changed in me. The world is CORRUPT, but there's nothing we can do about it. Anarchs can scream _revolution_ all day, they've been doing so for DECADES, but they don't have the Courage of their Convictions. I've considered buying a sailboat, and sailing away, but I know that's not a solution for me. In truth, there isn't one! You play the cards you're dealt. Sometimes you get bad cards! That's life. No one ever said it was fair, and it's not an easy thing to get through. I don't plan for tomorrow, because there is no point in doing so. I use to try, but Life ruined all my plans. I face today, and if I get through it, I call it done. Another day survived! I'm looking forward to the day this battered old bag of bones quits on me. My Spirit has been imprisoned in this crude matter far too long! (See full quote below.) It will be a joyous day when I leave this flesh behind, and my Spirit is Free to go far beyond anything we can imagine here. I caught a glimpse of it once, many years ago, when I was in a terrible car wreck. But I awoke still here. That was a day of disappointment! I leave you with words my Grandmother told me over forty years ago.... _"(Death) is nothing to fear. Luminous Beings are we. Not this crude matter. Someday your soul will soar with the speed of a thought, and you will care no more about the woes of this world."_ I was 8 or 9 years old when she said that. She died when I was 12, but I never forgot her words. So don't worry too much about these dark days. After the storm, the Sun shines brighter. And if the Storm takes you with it, do not fear. It's no bad thing really.

I'm so glad this has really hit home now, Bjorn, and you're affluent enough to achieve it. I was 45 when I made the jump, bought my land cheaply but had to sell my house cheaply to get it. Life's not perfect, but being off-grid isn't, unless you're still financially wealthy in that life. Wind turbines can burn out in sudden storms, and storage batteries don't last forever. Rodents compete to eat your roots, seeds and grains. Anyone who uses catch&release traps has never had a whole season's root veg destroyed in a few days. Tarps and sacks get drilled through by voles, while mice destroy roof insulation and wiring. Stoats and mink make chicken rearing impossible. But if you can deal with failures then create solutions, you'll go from surviving to thriving. I know the Authorities will eventually come for us, but have faith that the sheeple will wake up before then, and kick their arses.

[@JoybileeFarm]

I agree with what you're saying. Its so important to reconnect with nature and read plant lore. We left the rat race decades ago, but it creeps back in periodically. A person needs to be diligent to choose each day what is important and not get swept up with the latest matrix tentacle that draws you back in.

[@thechiseledbeaver]

As I watch your video I am happy to hear you say this. I have already taken steps as well. Myself and a few friends have purchased some remote property and are starting to build some small off grid cabins and a workshop there. If you don't mind i am going to use your term "The Nothingness." It is a great way to simply put what life is like wrapped up in all this nonsense. I feel like i have stuck it out long enough and it's time for action to move into a place of real wealth and wholeness with who I am. With my friends and family, and with the universe. I want to live the rest of my days enjoying my time here instead of being stressed or anxious or fearful. Thanks for the video.

I completely agree with you with all my heart and soul. We, people who wish to be free, need to be closer to nature. I have made huge changes in my life to live in the high country of western North Carolina. I love it. Even though I am 60 years old, I hike, fish, and mountain bike every week, as much as I can. To all… do it now, before “they” encroach too far into your life.

[@kellychapman4205]

I would love so much to get off grid. Financially and now things at breakneck speed are obstacles. Being in a place where the border is 40 miles south and been filling our country and such. I love people, and wish the best to all. I don't think it would suffice to go camping where there probably already plenty of coyotes around. Watching our way of life slowly die makes me sick!! Realizing the truth is a kick in the teeth. Bjorn I admire your gentle way and strength. Your voice is soothing and wise, exuding calm. I'm 100% sure that God will not let the wicked go unpunished. I need to heed some things you've taught and be strong. Blessings on you sir. My heritage has some Viking in it. I always wanted to visit your land, because of the Fjords, I've heard it's beautiful. God bless you and peace be with you 💕

[@buddhistbushcrafter4589]

To Bjorn's audience: I have been reading your comments, and it warms my heart to see so many of you compare this situation to BOOKS you have read! I am a retired librarian - you have made my day! Some other good ones: "1984" of course. "One Second After" (about living off grid by surprise). "Ishmael" by Daniel Quinn (about Takers in society). So glad to see all the readers, relating life to literature!

[@lpsoldin3162]

Brave New World, Animal Farm, The Naked Communist, and Atlas Shrugged might be good to add to that list.

[@secretofayurveda1520]

Thank you dear honest soul for your work in sharing your wisdom, thoughts and inspiration. Your videos inspire me to follow my dream of going off-grid with my whole family, including my husband, my parents, my brother and my two young children. Currently undergoing a work-in-progress too here my friend. It is not comfortable or easy. But just like the lobster who outgrows his shell; true growth requires us to endure some kind of uncomfortable periods. Stress is necessary sometimes for growth to happen. You already understood this concept a long time ago. Enduring times of uncomfortable living now, reaps the rewards of growth and freedom in years to come. I am telling myself this living as a nomad for the past two years, moving countries to leave the crazy Western world behind. Feeling worn down takes its toll. Finding joy in every day is the key. Keep doing what you are doing. You're an inspiration. Your light is reaching the darkest corners of the globe and you're helping someone, somewhere, sometime. You have kept me going when I was pregnant during the pandemic and during lockdowns in France. Thankfully left there now. I thank you so much for spreading hope to us all. Keep doing your work, spread light and stay connected to your goals.

The "Nothingness" was an idea explored in the movie 'The Neverending Story' where people's imaginations slowly died and they stopped believing in Fantasia which came crumbling down. I haven't watched television for over a year, so you're not alone.

[@SC-gw8np]

Sounds like a great movie.

[@jceezee1084]

Absolutely. I used to play strategy games like Civilisation etc. on the computer then I realized that life was the ultimate strategy game, especially if you play the game where you try to become as independent and self-sufficient as possible. The "game" is hard, but the rewards are amazing and more importantly, *real*.

[@HroduuulfSonOfHrodger]

If you guys aren't already growing your own food, enough to survive at least a year, and if you don't have food stored up in your basement to get you through at least a year, you're all probably in big trouble coming soon. Without food, we die. And access to clean water. We are already seeing shortages at the grocery store and prices skyrocketing through the roof. Plus gas to drive to the grocery store is off the charts. They've been telling us this is coming for years. I guess people have not been listening or paying attention. We have been and are still not fully ready, but we are getting there with our homestead. Many countries to include the USA have had their leaders come right out and tell us recently that a food shortage is coming. Again, if you cannot find food and you are not growing it, you're going to die...unless you have some kind neighbors willing to share, but then they could die by helping you. This is serious. This is real. Toilet paper shortage. Now baby formula shortage. All of these "random" accidents where entire warehouses of food, chickens, etc. just burn to the ground (1 even hit by an airplane). 10,000 cattle died this week in Kansas. Imagine how much beef that could've become and how many people it would've fed. Is this all planned? If you aren't connecting the dots, not sure what to tell you. The "enemy's" plan is depopulation to save the planet, and they call it climate change or green this and that. They want people to die. They do not hide their thoughts. It's in their speeches at their conferences. We have been going to the grocery store and each time the shelves have less and less in every aisle. Entire sections wiped out and completely empty. It's obvious what's coming. We have enough to survive maybe a half year or more. Many of you, I believe, might not even have enough to last a month. This is a major problem. Please wake up and then help educate those around you.

[@killbill5477]

I have to tell you that listening to your words I almost started crying. I feel the same way man and I think a lot of us do. I work about 55 or so hours a week and then I go home and I work more and I'm not really getting anywhere other than completely drained of my spirit. I don't have a bank account to back up moving off grid but I feel like soon enough that won't matter anyway.

[@KeepTalkingRomania]

The last two years have been eye-opening for me, this coincided with my mid-life crisis which resulted in a major awakening to what reality and life are. All the religions say this: Life is an Illusion, Samsara, call it as you will but the wise have said it time and time again. This is not an invitation to passivity because everything is dispair but to a reorientation towards within. For 20 odd years I worked like a horse to gain more and have more and for what? For a job title? a house/flat in a crowded city? a dinner in a restaurant? these are just distractions from the real journey of life, the one towards the within. Our longing for journeys and adventure cannot be achieved by everyone, I also wanted to sail the world, to reach South Pole, to become a cosmonaut when I was a child but we can't all do this because what we truly long for is our interior. So in my early 40s my only purpose now is to know myself and try to live a life that will make the Great Passing when I'll be old and frail, way easier. My grandma' had such a life and when she passed away, unlike many dead people she seemed asleep, calm and bright. She is my model for becoming a better person.

[@judithwares6445]

I'm 74 years young and could not agree with you more. I have directed my life in a manner of adventure and loving nature as a way of life. I have very little in material possessions... I failed to make choices of putting my earnings aside. As a single mother of three I thought I was making good choices of living a life as a good example but did not prepare my life for what we are facing now in our modern world. My children are all in their 40's and fifties and I have four grandchildren. They are living their life as they see it through their individual lens of life. I love that you are walking the walk and not just talking the talk !

[@NoreenVan-ef6tf]

Thank you for this fireside talk about the modern nothingless way of living. Its not real. What's real is a long hike on the Appalachian trail in the US or in Norway. Being with nature is the true living. When you get to our age in life, consumerism rat race is a waste of time and all resources. You can live a very healthy life and a very rich life within nature. This type of living you have everything you need and more. Currently, I have a cabin on 26 acres that's off the grid. But soon I will move to a full off the grid farm in Maine where I can live simply. Laws in NY state will not allow people to have camp fires nor fireplaces in the next year or so. They claim this hurts the environment. I disagree but what hurts the environment that government policy allows is Fracking for oil and natural gas. By Spring time in 2024, I will be free to live simple. Having a coffee with nature and painting in my studio or hiking with nature. This dream I will make real.. I thank you for helping me to make this needed change. Have a wonderful holiday season.🐿🐞

[@thewhitewizard1320]

Yes, getting out of the matrix, or rat- race as I call it, is essential. Personally, I believe having a big plot of land, and exploiting it with several generations of your family, is the way to live. Like "Alaska, the last frontier". Admire the way they live.

FREE WILL......this is going to get ugly really fast, everyone be very carefull, everything is getting weaponized, and l mean everything!
